The battle ended in just four or five snaps of the fingers, but all his strength had been drained away, and he couldn't muster up any spiritual power.
The move he just used came from the pile of sword manuals that Luo Cang threw to him - this shows that this master is indeed his real master - that sword manual also seems particularly unique among a bunch of Xuan-level skills. To be precise, it only has this one move.
Before this, Luo Jiujiang had used more than a dozen newly learned moves in front of Luo Cang but failed to use them. Firstly, those sword techniques were not suitable for Luo Jiujiang, so he only needed to figure out two or three points of Xingyi to use casually. However, this move of Zhan Fenglu was very suitable for Luo Jiujiang's temperament, so he had to polish it in his mind first; secondly, it was because this was actually a killing move that would hurt both sides.
It was incredibly powerful, and its attack condensed incredibly quickly, temporarily preventing Du Chuan from unleashing his ultimate move. However, it also consumed a significant amount of energy. If Luo Jiujiang's attack had been slightly weaker, allowing Du Chuan to seize the opportunity, or if Du Chuan still had the energy to counterattack after Luo Jiujiang's continuous attacks, then Luo Jiujiang, having exhausted his spiritual energy, would likely have been left lying in wait for death.
If it weren't for Han Qianling's support behind him, Luo Jiujiang wouldn't dare to fight so hard.
It wasn't until Han Qianling stepped forward to ensure that Du Chuan was completely subdued and Luo Jiujiang had caught his breath that the law enforcement team finally arrived. In fact, they arrived quite quickly, but the fight between Luo Jiujiang and Du Chuan was too fast.
Everyone in the team was shocked to see Du Chuan lying on the ground covered in blood and the exhausted young master. Luo Jiujiang gave a brief explanation and handed Du Chuan, who had fainted due to excessive blood loss, to the family law enforcement team. He then stood up unsteadily with the help of Han Qianling's hand.
Han Qianling understood what Luo Jiujiang meant as soon as he saw where he was looking: "Are you going to find your master?"
Luo Jiujiang hummed, pressed his chest, and said truthfully: "This fight was frustrating."
Although he ultimately defeated Du Chuan, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, by leaping levels, there were too many coincidental factors involved. If Du Chuan's killing move had been more concentrated, if his own cultivation had been weaker and unable to withstand it, or if he hadn't been able to hold on against the repeated backlash, the outcome would have been very different.
Han Qianling didn't say anything more about him needing to rest. He just followed Luo Jiujiang's thoughts and carried him towards Beixue Garden. At the same time, he sighed softly: "You won't calm down even after being injured. I think you just want to get scolded."
After a short rest, Luo Jiujiang's energy had returned. He was now joking, "Who scolded me? You? I really can't think of it, Qianling. You're not suited to this kind of thing. Instead of imagining you scolding someone, I'd rather you bite me."
Han Qianling glanced at him with a half-smile, then turned his head towards the direction where the law enforcement team had carried Du Chuan away. From an angle that Luo Jiujiang couldn't see, his expression darkened like a dark cloud.

Facing the disheveled Luo Jiujiang, Luo Cang slowly watered the last flower under the eaves. Only then did he look at Luo Jiujiang's dusty clothes, the unwiped bloodstains at the corners of his lips, and his slightly pale face.
"Got beaten up?" Luo Cang sighed, "What a shame!"
"I beat him up too." Luo Jiujiang said with a smile, "In the end, I won, so it wasn't that embarrassing."
"Both sides were injured and didn't even have the energy to finish off the opponent. How can this be considered a win?" Luo Cang turned around and went back to watering his flowers, asking casually.
Hearing him say this, Luo Jiujiang knew that he had been watching the whole battle, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Master really has a lot of leisure time." He watched his apprentice spitting blood like it was free and didn't even help.
"You youngsters are fighting each other over there, how can I interfere?" Luo Cang said without raising his eyelids. "Of course, if you really can't hold on any longer, that's another matter."
Luo Cang called this a fight between two Qi Refining Seventh-level cultivators and one Foundation Establishment Three-level cultivator. Luo Jiujiang had nothing to say about it. However, knowing that his fight had been under Luo Cang's watchful eye, his fear finally dissipated a little.
Luo Cang put the shovel and kettle back in their original places, then said slowly: "After you were injured, you didn't treat the injury, but came directly to me. Do you want me to support you?"
"That's not what I meant." Luo Jiujiang shrugged. "Even if you're willing to help me this time, you can't help me every time. It's better for me to ask you to teach me the big moves, and save you the trouble of hearing me complain again in the future when I can't beat you."
"The abacus is ticking loudly." Luo Cang glanced at Luo Jiujiang, "What if I don't teach you? Are you going to cry, make a fuss, or even hang yourself?"
Luo Jiujiang immediately said as a matter of course: "Then I will definitely not trouble you, go home and ask my father to teach me!"
Luo Cang: “…”
He said in disbelief, "Your naturally born flesh is a wonder in the world. Only God knows how it was created."
"No." Luo Jiujiang heard the other party's tone of relief, and he was in a better mood to joke: "My mother also knows how to give birth, but God may not know as well as she does."
Luo Cang: “…”
